In the divorce you get a lot of money and a house.

You don't stop loathing that person.

I just don't understand the continued loathing of Smith. The process worked, and he was a big part of the process. Had we drafted Geno Smith, Johnny Manziel, or Paxton Lynch, who are all colossal busts, would this team be in the enviable position that it's in now? I highly doubt it. First of all, drafting any other first round quarterback the last 5 years would have drastically reduced the chance that we drafted Mahomes. Secondly, a winning environment has been built here in that time frame. Mahomes comes in with weapons at WR, TE, and RB, as well as a respectable offensive line. He is setup to succeed. If Mahomes turns out to be half of what we are hoping for, the next few years could be the best for this franchise since Superbowl IV. And let's not forget what we got in return for Smith. The Chiefs are primed to be a true contender for years to come. Thanks in part to them bringing in Alex Smith 5 years ago. I was frustrated with his play too. But I, for one, am glad that it worked out the way that it did. You haters need to open your eyes. You know that I'm right.

Trading for him was a cowardly move when it occurred. I get that the Chiefs scouts and Dorsey were in agreement that they weren't willing to touch a single QB in the 2013 draft. That's fine. If that's what you're actually dealt, then punt into next year. Don't give up 2 2nd rounders and hand out an extension to a guy who's never going to get the job done for you.

It's only by the grace of God that Dorsey and company fell in love with Mahomes and were able to snag a cheap trade up with Buffalo to get him before Houston, Arizona, New Orleans, and the NYG could make deals happen. Yes, Dorsey deserves 100% of the credit for making the trade up happen, but he needed a bit of luck. He needed Mahomes to last until 10, and he needed Buffalo to be stupid, AND he needed the other teams to not outsmart him at the pass. Any one of those things goes wrong and we're STILL likely saddled with Alex freakin Smith.

I disagree. I don't see it as cowardly as all. Smith was able to return the team to respectability and hold the reins until the right quarterback came available. The only quarterback that was worth drafting prior to Mahomes was Carr. Carr would have been nice. But I'm happy with Mahomes. We'll see who has the best career. If Mahomes is no better than average, then they probably messed up waiting so long. But if he ends up a generational talent, then it was worth every snap that Smith took.
